Nature's Symphony in Secret Sea

Nature's Symphony Bundle + Beautiful Motifs Bundle + Lasting Linen Stamp + Stylish Shapes Dies

This weeks Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Secret Sea. I used a blending brush to create a lighter tone of Secret Sea on Basic White for the die cut fern.

The Lasting Linen background stamp created a great background for the card front. I distressed the edges of the card front by running the edge of my scissors along the edge, till it was appropriately frayed.
